On a Sunday morning, a man with half rotten fingers walked into our compound shouting ''Amma...dharmam podunga!!!''. My father , who was busy preparing his lecture notes, searched for 100 Rupees in his wallet ,walked across to the man with a shirt in his hand and gave him both. The man collected gleefully both and left. I was standing near the door as my dad walked back.''Why ?'After all what difference does it make to a man who is suffering ??'' ' - I asked .''Son, I cannot change his reality but at least i made him smile. ''- he replied.
(Inspired from a real incident from my life. Thanks Pa....for the inspiration.)
Once he got out from ur house, the man went straight to nearest KSBC and got a full bottle brandy for himself! ;)

ReplyDeleteA blind old man came to our house once. His was completely naked and his wife was asking us for clothes. My parents took pity on them and gave them enough food and clothes for that man to wear...After 15 days...these people make an appearance again in our street and to our shock again the man is wearing nothing and the woman is asking everyone for clothes and food!!!
